(October 14, 2015 – Milton, NY) Sono-Tek Corporation (OTC QX: SOTK) today announced sales of $2,975,000 for the three months ended August 31, 2015, compared to sales of $2,634,000 for the prior year period, an increase of $341,000 or 13%. Although not directly reported, a comparison of the three months ended August 31, 2015 to the three months ended May 31, 2015, also showed an increase in sales of $92,000 or 3%, continuing an upward trend for this Fiscal Year.

The current quarter’s increase was due to sales of Servo units to the electronics printed circuit board industry combined with sales of WideTrack large coating lines to the glass industry which is currently enjoying strength due to lower energy prices. In addition, during the quarter, the Company sold a special Widetrack system, valued at $360,000 to a significant global food manufacturer. This sale represents the Company’s single largest sale to the food industry to date. The customer has the potential to buy an additional system every 12 to 18 months as part of a planned multi-year roll out of our technology among all of its manufacturing sites.

Based on backlog, recent shipments, and proposals, the Company is expecting another increase in revenue for the third quarter of this Fiscal Year in comparison to last year’s results. More specifically, the Company expects to see strength in sales of its three axis coating equipment, medical device coaters, and WideTrack Coating systems to the glass and textile industries, and the food applications industry.

The Company reported net income of $144,000 for the three months ended August 31, 2015, compared to $115,000 for the prior year period, an increase of $29,000. The Company also expects to report continuing profitability in the third quarter, based on current backlog and shipments to date.

Dr. Christopher L. Coccio, Sono-Tek’s Chairman and CEO, stated that, “We are pleased with the continuing strengthening of our business, as viewed from our quarter to quarter proposal backlog and sales activity. We communicated these trends at the Annual Shareholders Meeting on August 13, 2015, where we reiterated our goal of sales growth versus last year, combined with an annual revenue goal of $20 million by 2020.
